Abstract
A novel, pyrrolidine sulfonamide-based organocatalyst has been developed and used to catalyze direct, efficient and α-aminoxylation reactions of aldehydes and ketones with excellent regio- and enantioselectivities. Unlike l-proline, the new catalyst exhibits high activity and enantioselectivity when used in a variety of organic solvents.
